I was thinking of starting a new thread for my hallowed opinion... but I'll just post it here.

I really like the colors. And because MET is good, the layout is good. I like Groot, so sure, style it around Groot.

I'm not a fan of the staple at the left outlane.

SPIKE... ugh. This looks a game that could possibly make me try another SPIKE game, but unfortunately...

Lonnie. I hate sounding insulting to someone who does something I would have a hard time with. He is probably a decent programmer, but uninspired. But you never know.

So no matter how much I love this theme, this game is a firm "wait" for me. They would have to do something special for me to jump on it, and that would take time to do. So we shall see.

I have to agree. It's a great looking game.

SPIKE, Lonnie. I just had to say those to keep my composure.

$499 extra in your pocket Stern!!

(We already know this is the way they do things, and we bought them, so it will continue. A vocal campaign won’t change it. Only a drop in sales would change it.)

I prefer SAM over Whitestar... but I do realize that I need to wait 5 more years before I make the final call on that. Just to make sure there are no long term issues with it. It’s only been out for just over a decade. But out of the gate, it’s more reliable in my opinion.

For SPIKE, I was able to make the final call in the first couple years. Junk.

Can you explain the rules to me? It sounds like you know a lot more about the game than I do. Just a quick explanation of which type of rules, how modes are integrated. If they’ve crushed it I have to assume I missed that somewhere.
